The Broncos' biggest test of the 2024 season awaits.

Safety Delarrin Turner-Yell, who remains on Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform, was also ruled out.

The Broncos have made a pair of roster moves.

Nix is just the third Bronco in franchise history to win Offensive Rookie of the Month honors, and he is the first to earn the nod in more than 20 years.

"We know what it's going to be," quarterback Bo Nix said. "We've got to match the intensity, the passion and the physicality that they're going to play with."

Defensive end Zach Allen and fullback Mike Burton were among the limited participants.

Turner-Yell remains on the Physically Unable to Perform list, but he is now eligible to return to the active roster.

He became the first quarterback in Broncos history to throw for three touchdowns and rush for a touchdown without throwing an interception, and Denver remains undefeated (5-0) in games in which Nix has not thrown an interception.

Plus, Head Coach Sean Payton explains the Broncos' mindset of searching for improvement after a win over the Panthers.

In his best statistical performance as a pro, Nix completed 28-of-37 passes for 284 yards, three touchdowns and a 124.2 quarterback rating. He also added a touchdown on the ground via a goal-line lunge.

"In losses, you can miss some things that are really good, and then in wins, if you're not careful, you can miss some things that have to be cleaned up," Head Coach Sean Payton said Sunday.

After being listed as doubtful on the Broncos' final injury report of Week 8, safety P.J. Locke is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
